WREXHAM manager Phil Parkinson felt his players showed the necessary grit to claim victory at Millwall and a landmark result ahead of the international break.

Not only was the victory gained at The Den a first Championship win of the season, but it was the Red Dragons’ first in the second tier since a final-day victory over Rotherham in the 1981-82 campaign.

Kieffer Moore set them on their way with his fourth goal in three games before Lewis O'Brien sealed the result, but only after a lengthy delay following a serious-looking injury to goalkeeper Danny Ward.
